Flight
Rhodes is easiest to reach by flying through Athens (ATH). Step 1: Fly from the U.S. to Athens (ATH) Most U.S. → Athens routes will include a layover in a major European hub (common connections include Frankfurt, Zurich, Paris, London, Amsterdam, etc.). Sometimes booking your long-haul flight into Europe first, then adding a separate flight to Athens can be more cost-effective, so it’s worth checking both options. Step 2: Athens (ATH) → Rhodes (RHO) From Athens, it’s a quick ~1 hour flight to Rhodes. There are typically multiple flights per day from ATH to RHO, so it’s usually an easy connection. Tip: When searching flights, try comparing: U.S. → ATH → RHO (all on one itinerary) vs. U.S. → major European city → ATH, then ATH → RHO (sometimes cheaper)

House Or Rental
For the week of the wedding, the Caballes family will be staying at Under the Sun Villa / Reflections Cave Villa (two connecting spaces). We just wanted to share this location for reference. There are plenty of wonderful hotel and Airbnb options nearby in the Kallithea and Faliraki areas, so feel free to choose what works best for you.
Rental Car
The easiest and fastest way to get around the island is to rent a car. You can also choose to rent a motorcycle/vespa but Rhodes is quite large so a car is your best bet. If you would prefer not to rent a car, there are taxis a well. Options: 1. Drive Rhodes (https://www.driverentacar.gr/rent-a-car-in-rhodes-driverentacar-fleet/) 2. Marathon Rent a Car (https://www.marathonrentacar.gr/) 3. Esperides Rentals (https://www.esperidesrentals.gr/) 4. Rodos Cars (https://www.rodoscars.gr/)
